lyrics

I know why you can’t be brave
The things that keep you meek are the same
As the reason you walk unsure
It’s a part of you that can’t be kept in store

He’s caught between himself
Head in a plastic bag
Don’t try to call it wealth
Head in a plastic bag

I’m tired of the questions you pose
The inhaled exhaled air inside your nose
Find a word that rhymes with deceit
Weakness, treatment, receipt for last week

He’s caught between himself
Head in a plastic bag
Don’t try to call it wealth
Head in a plastic bag
The boring cards he’s dealt
Head in a plastic bag
Go to Bali and find yourself
Head in a plastic bag

(He’s the fire part of fire)

You move your body to the music but its always out of time
I won’t stay I won’t rewind
I won’t remind
You say that sameness is boring and security is a fad
That there’s a mystique and mystery that’s compelling and nostalgic about being bad
I suspect they will – they’ll accept it and embrace it, much more than I
But at some point you’ll touch the line
And more than touch it, you’ll probably lick its salty residue off the road
Then it will be hard to find comfort with anyone for an evening or a day
You’ll be looking for something more substantial, something that pays
You’ll do croissants on the palace du promenade de la romantique de la lygon st without sleep – still no luck g.
So you’ll go to disneyland take pingers and express yourself in front of children
But that won’t work either, nothing will work
Maybe that residual leftover comparatively new set of social life heavies will still have you though.
Maybe with your winter friends you can always be the fire part of fire.

He’s caught between himself
Head in a plastic bag
Don’t try to call it wealth
Head in a plastic bag
The boring cards he’s dealt
Head in a plastic bag
Go to Bali and find yourself
Head in a plastic bag
